Alex Rebert e5e24107f9 libpayload: cbfs: fix infinite loop in cbfs_get_{handle,attr}
cbfs_get_handle() and cbfs_get_attr() are both looping over elements to
find a particular one. Each element header contains the element's
length, which is used to compute the next element's offset. Invalid or
corrupted CBFS files could lead to infinite loops where the offset would
remain constant across iterations, due to 0-length elements or integer
overflows in the computation of the next offset.

This patch makes both functions more robust by adding a check that
ensure offsets are strictly monotonic. Instead of infinite looping, the
functions are now printing an ERROR and returning a NULL value.
